Styled-components is a CSS-in-JS library aiming to bring the power of CSS to React components. Both versions 0.1.7 and 0.1.8 are early "work in progress" releases, heavily inspired by the css-components-demo. The core functionality remains consistent: leveraging tagged template literals to write CSS directly within JavaScript, enhanced by powerful abstractions.
Looking at the package manifests, superficial differences exist. Version 0.1.8 was released shortly after 0.1.7 (within minutes on the same day, September 25, 2016). The underlying dependencies, including crucial ones like react, glamor, and lodash, are pinned to the same versions, suggesting no significant API changes and probably bug fixes. The developer tooling (devDependencies) used for linting, testing, and building the library also appear unchanged.
For developers considering styled-components at this early stage, the focus should be on the fundamental concept, its potential to simplify CSS management in React projects and the quality of the work of Glen Maddern. Note that these very early versions of styled-components should probably not be used on production systems, as they are marked as a work in progress, consider that breaking changes are possible without further notice. However, if you want to build some small personal project you can safely use it. As the core dependencies remain consistent, upgrading from 0.1.7 to 0.1.8 shouldn't introduce compatibility problems, providing mainly stability enhancement.
